Type: EaxDataAreaSliceType;
The Type property returns type of analytical data area slice.
To add in the required type of data slice analytical area, use IEaxDataAreaSlices.Add.
Executing the example requires that the repository contains an express report with the EXPRESS identifier containing table.
Add link to the Express, Metabase system assemblies.
Sub UserProc;
Var
MB: IMetabase;
Express: IEaxAnalyzer;
Slice: IEaxDataAreaSlice;
Begin
// Get repository
MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
// Get express report
Express := MB.ItemById("EXPRESS").Bind As IEaxAnalyzer;
// Get data slice
Slice := Express.DataArea.Slices.Item(0);
// Display to the console slice type
Select Case Slice.Type As Integer
Case 1: Debug.WriteLine("Slice type - Pivot");
Case 2: Debug.WriteLine("Slice type - Laner");
Case 3: Debug.WriteLine("Slice type - Relational");
End Select;
End Sub UserProc;
After executing the example the console displays type of the specified data slice.
